This episode we get into Korean auteur Park Chan-Wook’s modern cult classic, OLDBOY,  which recently celebrated its 20th anniversary with a limited theatrical re-release. It’s a tale of revenge, obsession, torture, and terrible truths. It’s also got one of the most influential single-shot takes in cinema history, involving a hammer.

There's not too many genre mashup monster/comedy/adventure/horror films out there, and even less that are any good. What other cases can be made against 1990's TREMORS? Well, it's PG-13, so there's that. It has Reba McEntire and the Dad from Family Ties. But enough of all that,  if you’re among those of us who helped turn it into a cult classic over the years after its abysmal initial theatrical run, you already know this is all a jest. How does it hold up though? Listen and find out.  "So what if we make it to the rocks? We'll be dead in three days anyway! This bastard ain't smarter than us. I'm gonna go for it.

Drug addict cyborgs, infant hostages, elderly abuse, kid drug lords, the firebombing of a drug treatment clinic, a violent robbery committed by a pack of boy scouts and their scout leader. When Frank Miller (yes, that Frank Miller) landed the gig writing ROBOCOP 2, it's as though he took it upon himself as a personal challenge to push the savage satirical edge of the first film to it's most extreme form. But how has this initially maligned sequel aged over the years? Is it worthy of a reappraisal? Listen and find out. "On the international scene, the Amazon nuclear facility has blown its stack, irradiating the world's largest rain forest. Environmentalists are calling it a disaster--but don't they always?"

This episode we finally discuss A24's recent breakout, Talk To Me. Serving as the feature film directorial debut of brothers Danny and Michael Philippou, the movie revolves around a group of teenagers experimenting with a mysterious embalmed hand which allows them to contact, and temporarily be inhabited by, spirits. Needless to say, things go too far. Prior to writing and helming the film, the Philippou Brothers created and have operated Australian Youtube Channel RackaRacka since 2013, known for it's horror/comedy videos.

Haomies! This episode we return to 1997 when Al Pacino ("greeeeeeeat ass!!!") played himself playing the devil and Keanu Reeves terrified us with his attempt at a Southern Accent. It's The Who Goes There Podcast, Episode 390: The Devil's Advocate. Review starts right around the 30-minute mark, after Jorge and Rhett briefly discuss some Billy Joel deep cuts. "Who are you carrying all those bricks for anyway? God? Is that it? God? Why I'll tell you...let me give you a little inside information about God. God likes to watch. He's a prankster. Think about it. He gives man... instincts. He gives you this extraordinary gift, and then what does he do? I swear, for his own amusement...his own private, cosmic, gag reel; he sets the rules in opposition. It's the goof of all time. Look, but don't touch. Taste, but don't swallow. And while you're jumping from one foot to the next, what is he doing? He's laughing his sick, fucking ass off! He's a tightass! He's a sadist! He's an absentee landlord! Worship that?! Never!"

Awww shit, here we go again. This episode we review all five episodes of Black Mirror, Season 6. While Season 4 had it's high points, most notably an episode entitled USS Callister starring Meth Damon (Jessie Plemons), I think most will agree Season 5 was easily the worst of the series. So, we had high hopes that series creator Charlie Brooker had taken his time and bounced back with a new season to bring us more of the existential dread and dark, dizzying forays into the implications of technology and consciousness we've come to expect from the series since it debuted back in 2011. Is this the case? Listen to the episode and find out!  “So, what happens when we die? We drop into Limbo. Are you serious? Limbo? Unconstructed dream space. Well, what the hell is down there? Just raw, infinite subconscious. Nothing is down there!" It’s the Who Goes There Podcast episode 388! If you enjoy the show, please consider joining our Patreon subscribers.

Greetings idiots! And so it came to pass that beloved King Hans, in his wisdom and discernment, blessed us with a horror relic from the atomic age- 1954's THEM! As part of his privileges as reigning king of our patreon, good ol' Hans gets to pick a film. As stated by the man himself, this was selected to accompany the theatrical release of Oppenheimer, as it relates to the aftermath of all the nuclear testing in New Mexico. Besides that though, it all pairs pretty gooooooood with our prior episode, Starship Troopers, as both involve giant bugs and heavily armed humans shooting at them.  As Warner Bros. highest grossing film of 1954, THEM! was one of this first films of it's kind, and one of the film industry's first attempts to process (and exploit) the anxiety and terror of the atomic age through a fictional lense. Meanwhile, over in Japan in the very same year, that country would begin it's cultural processing of the nuclear atrocities it suffered with a little film called Gojira (Godzilla).  “Don't you

Welcome back. How ya been? This episode we’re talking Paul Verhoeven’s gory military satire, STARSHIP TROOPERS. While universally praised for it’s staggering visual effects and creature design courtesy of Phill Tippet, upon initial release the film was considered a commercial and critical failure. The satirical elements were mostly misunderstood and even occasionally interpreted to mean the exact opposite of what was intended. Verhoeven’s hyper-violence and grisly combat scenes were perhaps most appreciated by gorehounds and teenagers. All that being said, over the last 25 years Starship Troopers has undergone a critical reappraisal.  So, how’s the film aged since it’s original 1997 release? Listen and find out. As of this writing the film is also available to stream on Netflix. Second-half of the show begins right around the 46-minute mark and the review shortly after.  “That's great. That's just fucking great, man! Now what the fuck are we supposed to do? We're in some real pretty shit now man! Game over

EPISODE 385: DEADSTREAM You’re back! That warms our hearts. There’s a lot of crazy shit going on, as usual. Rich people getting their boats flipped by Killer Whales, rich people getting yeeted into soup after imploding in a janky-ass submarine equipped with a cheap gaming controller as a navigation device while trying to visit the Titanic, a mercenary insurrection in Russia. Yes, it’s a wild time to be alive. We suppose this has always been the case though.  This episode we dive into DEADSTREAM, a found footage horror/comedy revolving around a recently disgraced Youtuber who’s willing to do anything to get his followers back. For those who haven’t seen it the movie is currently available to stream on Shudder.  “Your reality is already half video hallucination. If you’re not careful, it will become total hallucination.” It’s the Who Goes There Podcast episode 385! As always, if you enjoy the show, please consider joining our Patreon subscribers.

Salutations idiots! Hopefully you’ve had the opportunity to listen to the previous episode featuring the introduction of our new cohost, Jacob. He’s dope. We appreciate him, and we appreciate all the good will and words of encouragement we’ve received from many of you.  “Don't act so weak... this is just the beginning. Remember... your nightmare's only getting worse!” It’s the Who Goes There Podcast episode 384! Next up is 2022’s bonkers South Korean sci-fi action horror hybrid, PROJECT WOLF HUNTING. Among other fine moments, this film bears the distinction of being the only film we’re aware of in which a man is presumably killed by another man’s Dee, mid-cockgobble. This is important stuff. The film is currently available to rent on VOD or stream on Screambox.  As always, if you enjoy the show, please consider joining our Patreon subscribers.

Ah! It’s been a long time, we shouldn’t have left you, without a dope beat to step to. More accurately, it’s been like 3 months at most, and we have no beats. But we’re back! And when I say “we” I mean exactly two thirds of what you’re used to. Yes, friends, idiots, and people reading this out of morbid curiosity, Matt has shuffled off this silly-ass show and embraced the next chapter of his life. We will miss him and hope he’ll be making periodic special guest appearances when he feels like it. We have a new cohost on the show joining us. We need the energy of the triforce to sustain the Dee. It’s a new era of sorts, again, for WGT, and the chemistry is guaranteed to be a bit different. We’re just going to continue doing what we do and letting it take shape. This is a massive slab of content here, as we present to you not one but two episodes. Episode #382 is Matty Ding Dong’s final outing with us which we recorded a few months back. We review and discuss 1989’s Japanese body horror extravaganza, TETSU

Ohayo, ya cucks! Matt is finally back from Japan and you know what that means... absolutely nothing. I mean, we'll be releasing 4 episodes based off of Japanese films, but for this week, it means nothing. We did record an episode on that new Brandon Cronenberg movie Infinity Pool about two years ago. So we should probably release that. You know how we feel about Cronenbergs over here. Well, aside from Rhett wanting to have weird sex with them. Do we feel the same about this movie? Only one way to find out. There's actually a few ways to find out, but that doesn't sound as fun. Any who. Listen to the new episode. Or don't. Or maybe you go to hell, you go to hell, and you die! Artwork was once again done by the incredible Cal Gee. Go follow him on instagram.

Ahoy-hoy, ya cucks! Seeing as how it's Valentine's Day and all we decided to show you a little love for once and release the episode... EARLY! God damn, we're so fuckin thoughtful! In addition to the wonderful gift we've bestowed upon you, we thought it would be peachy keen to cover a love story that transcends time and space. A story about a boy sending his dad through time to bang his mom. Not sure how, but there's some kind of cuckoldry going on here. That's right, sperm-burpers! This week we're covering 1984's The Terminator! This episode is best enjoyed at loud volume, while clapping them cheeks. So get to it.

Salutations, ya slack-jawed shit-slingers. The earth has once again traveled all the way around the sun, so you know what that mean! It means all of you idiots are going to make pointless resolutions that you're never going to stick to, and you're going to clog up the gym for a month before settling back into your crumb-covered couches. I have a home gym though, so clearly I'm superior and unaffected by your sloth-like nature. In addition to that we're reviewing our picks for the best and worst films of 2022. Huzzah! Halfway through 2022 we'd been discussing how the world of horror was severely lacking this year. Shortly after that all changed as our eyes were blessed with some real heavy hitters. So here it is, our best and worst of 2022. Do you agree with us? Is there something you love or hate that we missed? We don't fuckin care. You can still "at" us. See how that works out for ya.
